In a heady, dense rush, showing off some of the best and most idiosyncratic NYC street photography from the last full century, Everybody Street illuminates the lives and work of New York’s iconic street photographers, and the incomparable city that has inspired them. The documentary pays tribute to the spirit of the medium through a cinematic exploration of the City That Never Sleeps, and captures the visceral rush, singular perseverance and at times immediate danger customary to these artists — some of whom have never been covered as film subjects before, until now. From the surreal to the silly, from charming neighborhood slices of life to life-threatening police run-ins, from hip-hop to old ladies to everything in-between, Everybody Street throbs with the vital pulse of one of the world’s most amazing human nexus points. Featuring the work of Bruce Davidson, Elliott Erwitt, Jill Freedman, Bruce Gilden, Joel Meyerowitz, Rebecca Lepkoff, Mary Ellen Mark, Jeff Mermelstein, Clayton Patterson, Ricky Powell, Jamel Shabazz, Martha Cooper, Boogie, and more!
Dir. Cheryl Dunn, 2013, digital presentation, 83 min.
